Equine Services

Respectful Collection & Individual Cremation

Your horse will be collected from your stables, field or veterinary practice in a specially designed equine transporter. We offer a twenty-four-hour service, meaning we're always able to help when you need our services.

You are assured of a respectful and individual cremation, which means that your horse will be placed in gently, cremated on their own, in his/her entirety and you will receive only their ashes. We operate in accordance with the Code of Practice of the Association of Private Pet Cemeteries & Crematoria that is strictly adhered to by all members.

All the ashes of your horse or pony will be returned to you in a casket of your choice. We offer many unique and personal equine memorial and keepsakes including a token of their mane or tail which can be treasured as well their horseshoe, which can be specially cleaned & polished, should you wish.

Although we always return all of their ashes, we can also split ashes. This allows you to scatter or bury the majority of them at Dignity and have a smaller amount returned for keeping at home in a casket or keepsake item such as a heart or urn pendant. Alternatively, if you have a shared horse we can place their ashes into two or three smaller caskets. Just talk to us about your wishes and we will do our best to adapt to your needs.

After their individual cremation you can collect their ashes from Dignity Pet Crematorium, or they can be returned to your home or veterinary practice for a small charge.

I would highly recommend Dignity pet crematoriums equine service. The compassion shown by Giles throughout the collection of our pony, Harvey, made a very difficult day that little bit easier. He was so understanding, kind and patient giving us as much time as we needed to say goodbye.
